This album is really good. This album is also two hours long. His singing is still not the best. The energy on the heavier songs is there and the instrumentals are as good as they were on the last one. The length and singing hold this one back. Favorite songs were Tonight, Tonight, Jellybelly, Here Is No Why, Bullet With Butterfly Wings, Galapagos, Bodies, 1979, and Thru The Eyes of Ruby.

Bumping this score up by one point to attempt to offset the reviews that either hate hip-hop for no reason or misunderstand the point of the character of Slim Shady. Shoutout the Labi Siffre sample on My Name Is. Highlights are My Name Is, Guilty Conscience, Rock Bottom, and Still Don’t Give A Fuck.

This album was very good. Felt like something that could have come out much more recently. Favorites were I Wanna Destroy You, Positive Vibrations, Queen of Eyes, and Underwater Moonlight.

This was cool. It felt like it had peaks and valleys though. The final song sounded like a jazzy formula one race. Favorites were Block Rockin Beats, Setting Sun, Where Do I Begin, and The Private Psychedelic Reel.

I’ve listened to this album four and half ish times in the past two days not knowing what score to give it. This is great. Just interesting rhythms throughout.

This does a great job of capturing the feelings of loneliness and isolation as a result of suburban sprawl. The wanting for something more and desire for feeling among the identical houses and strip malls. The comparisons to Springsteen make sense especially on songs like Half Light II. My favorites were The Suburbs, Ready To Start, City With No Children, Half Light II, Month Of May, and Sprawl II.

No excuse not to listen to this one multiple times given its length. Unfortunately I didn’t like it very much.

Some well crafted pop songs. Some of them are better than others. Fernando is a banger.

This album is so good. One side is acoustic one side electric. With the second side growing sludgier and louder with each song. My My, Hey Hey, and Hey Hey, My My are perfect bookends. One of the best examples of effective sequencing in an album.

Rated 4/10

Listenable, but not something I would want to revisit. My favorite song was probably Song of Life.

Rated 6/10

I liked the electronic swells here. Could do without the intro and outro. Favorite songs were Impact and Monday

How did they get away with making The Motivator just Get It On again? I don’t really see the hype behind this one. Favorite songs were Monolith, Get It On, Girl, and Rip Off.

This just felt really long and I guess it was. The 20 minute opener set the tone here and I don’t think anything else surpassed it. Maybe DnB just isn’t for me.

This is really well made and it sounds great, but it just doesn’t really have anything to amaze me. My favorite songs were IGY, Green Flower Street, and The Nightfly.
